I would appreciate a GaN or whatever the technology called for the smaller ones, but don't really care since a/ the SUV I take on the trips is large enough, and b/ generator (anker solix f1500, 1500wh battery) is also large so the charger size does not really matter on the trips.

It depends on the system you’re riding. Some range extenders only trickle-charge the main battery, but others can run the bike by themselves. On our setup, the range extender can act as a standalone power source, so riding with just the extender is no problem. It’s a nice option if you want a lighter bike for a quick lunch ride.
